No really.  What did he do?  We now have a newest member "ivan" with 0 posts.  If you look at any of ivan's posts, they appear to be from a guest...even though he made them as a regular member.

Does that mean that when he signs back on he will have no posts?

I decided to see whether one can delete one's own account at Teh Gheekery (OMFG etc.)
As it turns out, one can.

I guess I must have missed that in the permissions. Oops.

And no, those confirmation emails go out automatically. I'm not sure as to why the confirmation did not go through.

If you continue to have problems ivan, just shoot me an email at chris[at]gotthegeek.com and I'll see what I can do for you.

Thanks, Cat!!!

Chris, I also tried registering as "Bakunin", with a different email (but same IP). Also no confirmation email. (You can delete "Bakunin", even though I kind of hoped to start out fresh with that identity. Bakunin would, of course, post exclusively in the Anarchy section.)

I would give you guys a bunch of Karma points, but I guess n00bs don't get that option.

You're good to go to use Karma now. I gave you a free pass to 100 posts.
